Because it Rocked

First and foremost is the sad remembrance of a great crooner, Frank Sinatra. It's actually the tenth anniversary of his death.

                    Frank_Sinatra_laughing

*sighs* Oh Frankie. When I'm feeling blue or mushy over my deployed husband, I lock the kids in a closet and kick back to some Frankie. Hands down, he's my favorite male Standards singer. Ella Fitzgerald is my very first fave, Frankie coming in second and Dean Martin in third. Any of you who are too young to know these singers, you must immediately go away. You make me feel old.  I remember wanting to grow up to be just like Ella when I was first really learning how to sing and to this day, I still croon her songs in the shower.

Now onto the coolness.

 Indiana Jones is ALMOST as cool as Chuck Norris. I might get my ass kicked for saying so, but sometimes you have to take that chance. If I'm dead in the morning, Norris has extracted his revenge for my irreverance.

Henceforth, www.thinkgeek.com has now produced:

THE HAT! Yes, fellow Indy geeks, this is your destiny available here. If I could own everything imaginable from that website, I would. My last order was an insanely high dollar amount that showered my husband and I in geeky goodies and gave my inlaws enough material to tease me about for weeks. But I don't care. I geek out so badly over their site so much that it hurts. I enjoy being a n3rd and I don't care who knows it. I'm sorry, did you mistake my "nerdy and awkward" for genuine humor? I regret to inform you, you were mistaken.

Aw come on, who wouldn't love a website that has actual caffienated soap?

Goodnight gang!

I have yet to see any of the Indiana Jones movies (besides a clip here and there, or a parody), but I must say that he does have a very snazzy looking hat. I'd like one myself. :) I've heard of those crooners, and Frank Sinatra was most wonderful, but I'm not very familiar with any of them. One day, I hope I will be.

amazing XD. I call 'em frankie too! I have to tell some of the peoploe I hang out with that "frankie" is actually just a nickname, and not his real name, cuz I swear (bad language aside), they have no clue! *cries* Frank Sinatra is my fav, more than Ella, (though Ella was damn awesome too! :D)

I have to say also that the Rat Pack kicks a$$ though! ever seen Oceans Eleven? the one with Frankie and the Gang?! amazing *bazza*

I was actually living in Vegas when Frank Sinatra died. The entire downtown strip went completely black to honor him. I was on the strip when it happened, it was the most coolest/ strange thing I had ever seen. Coolest because it's Frank Sinatra, strange because Vegas NEVER goes black...never. You know Vegas is all about the lights.

Have a great day!

Hey I've heard of Frankie!  He was theeeeee best. 

Chuck Norris won't kill you(maybe),  but please don't bash him again.  (<Just kidding).

Indiana Jones is awsome!

I understand,  I have nine siblings,  six of them younger.  There are many cloests in my house.

I love their caffeinated soap! I would have some, but I shower before bed, so it's counter-productive for me.

@himynameisgusandiscarepeople - I shower before bed too. But I keep thinking about buying that soap and washing my face with it in the morning. Then, my body would be all snoring and my face would be all AAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!

Thanks for Sharing!

RYC:

Wow! You didn't have to do that. But it's good to know that you love me. The feeling is mutual.. And yeah, I'm planning to go to Texas.. Uhm, just wait for me. Daniel (my boy friend in New York) and I are working things out. And when I get to Texas, I expect to have cookies for me and my honey Daniel..Cookies!!

You're so sweet. Hahaha It's funny coz in ABF's post about Xangan Idol 2, her first comment is

"You definitely want Purpleritz20 as your campaign manager"...

So FMB and Legendairy requested for my services as a campaign manager. Hahaha :] Really really awesome. I am so honored. So I'll be very busy again for the next month or two--depending on how long this contest will run. I don't know, I think you should be a judge. Although that would take up a lot of time. But think about it. I honestly think you would be an awesome judge since your Ms. Xangan Idol 1!

I hope you'll be a judge.. Not that I'm thinking you'll be bribed but I know that you have great judgment.. :]

And yeah, I'll go tell Daniel to make sure we visit Texas.. We will be living in New York.. I promise to go there.. So be ready to bake em cookies Gorgeous.
